Book This Venue!!

As two hikers who love the adirondacks we really wanted to give our guests a little bit of the hiking experience, Oak Mountain is truly the perfect venue for this! We cannot say enough great things about Oak Mountain!! They made our day truly spectacular and were our favorite wedding vendor to work with. Right from the beginning, Laura, their wedding coordinator, was a dream to work with. She must have answered over 100 emails from me over the course of our year planning our wedding. She was so easy to work with and was able to answer our questions quickly every time! The view from the top of the mountain was spectacular. All our guests enjoyed the chairlift ride, even the ones who were a little nervous about it at first. They really slow the chair lift down to make everyone feel safe and comfortable. The food was fantastic! We highly recommend the mac and cheese and the sweet potato pave! Guests were so impressed with the food. They worked with us to create signature cocktails that would fit in our budget and also turned out so delicious. The outdoor area is magical with a fire pit for anyone who doesn't want to participate in loud music and dancing and we were able to have lawn games set up as well! We had a large wedding with 175 guests and everyone had so much fun with the different hang out spaces, ballroom, outdoor area, and bar area. Laura and her team were so easy to work with to schedule, set up and pick up our wedding decor. Honestly if you are thinking of booking this venue, don’t hesitate!! It was everything we dreamed our wedding could be and more. Book them now!!

A Special Day We Will Never Forget @ Oak Mountain

Laura and Matt are true gem of humans--the entire staff at Oak Mountain welcomed us with smiles and made us feel at home. It was a beautiful experience, and from the moment my wife and I met Laura and went to the top of Oak Mountain we knew that THIS was the place for us to get married. I can go on and on about how special this place is.

The staff made us feel so welcomed and appreciated.

Laura and Matt were readily available and answered all of our (admittedly a lot!) questions. They know what they're doing and they helped us throughout the entire way.

Oak Mountain is gorgeous and a special place to get married. I can't stop smiling from seeing my Miamian families and my bride, our families and friends take the ski lift up the mountain. And having the back drop of the Adirondacks as you make that commitment is a true delight.

The staff: I can't be effusive enough, they made us feel so welcomed--like we were getting married in our own home. The staff feel like family and I think that Laura and Matt and the community have a lot to do with this special feeling.

I wish that I could go back and re-live that day! If you're thinking about Oak Mountain as a wedding venue, I fully support the decision. It's a special place and a place you'll want to keep coming back to. I can't wait to come back.

My wife and I got married in early October 2025, peak fall foliage (it was stunning), and had about 180 guests attend.

The food was damn good, and the bar was rolling (we had a satellite bar at the top of the mountain and had an ongoing tab bar at the venue down the mountain). We did Ben & Jerry's for dessert and our guests really enjoyed it. We had Brown Transportation help take our guests to and from the wedding (I enjoyed being back in a big ol' yellow school bus and our guests enjoyed the convenience!)

Major shout out to the town of Speculator--they welcomed us with open arms and it's a kind community who helped us out as we planned and our families and friends came to town for our big day.

(I can't remember his name, but there was a staff member that gave me some acorn seeds from Oak Mountain after we got married. He told me to plant them so I can always have a piece of Oak Mountain with us. Just letting you know I planted them brother!)

Laura and Matt, can't wait to see you both again, thank you for everything and thank you for helping create a wonderful community at Oak Mountain!

Gorgeous venue

My husband and I just had our wedding at oak mountain this year. Laura and Matt made the wedding process easy and stress free. If you’re looking to find a wedding venue, this is the perfect one. Laura was in constant communication with us making sure we had the best experience for our big day. Her kindness and patience put me at ease throughout the entire day. I knew I could leave all the coordinating up to her and everything turned out perfect! Thank you so much Laura for allowing us to have our dream wedding here at Oak Mountain.

Our wedding was absolutely incredible!

Our wedding day couldn't have gone more perfect! From the moment we started putting plans in place, Laura, Matt and her team were there to assist us with every step. Laura was so kind, easy to reach, did a great job providing support when we needed help figuring out details, and kept everything organized for us. The entire venue itself was stunning and beautiful...the mountaintop views, sunset, dinner selections, dance floor/table set-up and and attentive staff all made the day run so smooth and special for us. We are extremely grateful we could have our wedding at Oak Mountain! Thank you Laura, Matt and Team for making it all possible

Mountaintop Wedding of our Dreams

We had an amazing wedding and enjoyed working with Laura and the team at Oak Mountain. The venue is gorgeous and also holds special meaning for our family.

We had a mountaintop ceremony with incredible views. Right after the ceremony our guests enjoyed music, horderves, and satellite bar while we had our photos taken. We were so lucky to have perfect weather. One of the many great moments (and a rare moment alone) was riding down the chairlift together as husband and wife.

We held our rehearsal dinner on Friday night at Oak Mountain. The food was outstanding at both the rehearsal dinner and the wedding. Many guests continue to rave about the food to us. Our guests had a great time and everything ran so smoothly with Laura's help. The whole staff at Oak Mountain was committed to us having the best day of our lives and it showed.

Oak Mountain

Throughout the whole experience from hire to wedding day, and even to the day after when things were picked up, the crew at Oak was outstanding! Every question was answered. Every request handled. And, with professionalism and a smile! The food was incredible. The stunning Adirondack scenery, exciting chairlift ride, and fun vibe of the cocktail area, Acorn Pub and Eatery, and the ballroom made for a meaningful and memorable event. Thank you Laura, Matt, and the whole Oak Mtn family for a wonderful celebration!
